What the Tentative Title family covers
Tentative Title covers 2 title codes arranged into 2 levels of responsibility. Every title in it is a state title, so the employer is a state department, commission or authority rather than a county or municipality.
This family does not sit cleanly in one occupational group. New Jersey's classification plan carries a long tail of titles created for a specific program, a specific facility or a single consolidated local post, and they keep their own codes even when only one position exists. Reading the individual specifications below is the fastest way to see what the work actually is, since the family name alone will not tell you.
